Who should be #1 Seeds

These are the teams I believe should get #1 seeds in the NCAA Tournament. (In no particular order)

1. Duke 27-5
2. Gonzaga 31-2
3. Indiana 27-6
4. Louisville 29-5

Other Possibilities: Miami 26-6, Kansas 29-5

Ryan Kelly
Duke: Ryan Kelly is healthy. When he is healthy, Duke has only lost one game this season, an upset by Maryland in the ACC tournament.Most likely they will end up as a two seed, especially if Miami beats North Carolina today in the ACC Championship, giving them the tournament championship and the regular season championship. But if Miami loses, then Duke has a good resume and is one of the top teams in the nation, and should be considered for a number one seed.

Kelly Olynyk
Gonzaga: This team has done nothing wrong. They won their league and their conference tournament. they are ranked #1 in the land right now and are playing great basketball. Kelly Olynyk is a player of the year candidate. They are guaranteed a top seed.

Cody Zeller




Indiana:
Big Ten regular season champions. That's all they need. The Big Ten is the toughest conference in basketball and Indiana won it. Victor Oladipo and Cody Zeller will be top picks in this years NBA draft and lead this team.  Losing to Wisconsin in the Conference tournament hurts their chances to be the top overall seed, but they still deserve to be a number one seed.

Peyton Siva
Louisville: After coming back from down 16 to beat Syracuse last night in the Big East Championship Game, Louisville and Rick Pitino look like the best team in basketball. They have two of the best guards in the game in Peyton Siva and Russ Smith, and won the Big East regular season title, one of the best conferences in the nation. This teams has a strong case for the number one overall seed.

Shane Larkin





Miami: The Canes have been a great story all season and won the ACC regular season title. If they beat UNC today, it will be the first time a team based outside of North Carolina has won both titles in one season. They have proven they can compete with the best. Shane Larkin and Durand Scott are one of the best guard duos in the nation and Reggie Johnson is a beast down low. This team deserves a number one seed if they beat the Tarheels today to win their first ACC Tournament.
 

Ben Mclemore

Kansas: One of the all time powerhouse programs in college basketball, Bill Self has this team playing at the top of its game at the right time. They won the Big 12 regular season title, and steam rolled through the Big 12 Tournament. Ben Mclemore istheir leading scorer, and is likely to be the top pick in the NBA draft. Jeff Whithey is an artist when it comes to blocking shots and Elijah Johnson is on top of his game. If Miami loses today, it will be a tough decision between Duke and Kansas for the last number one seed.
